Another incredible ingredient that's in our newest product is SAFFRON 👌
Did you know that Saffron has been used medicinally for over 4,000 years, to treat at least 90 different illnesses.
But in supplements today, it’s become an evidence-based, natural mood booster that rivals pharmaceuticals without their side effects. “It’s known for its cheerfulness-promoting properties so it’s one of the happiest botanicals,” says Nick Bitz, ND, a naturopathic physician, and expert in botanical medicine and Ayurveda.
How it works.
Saffron exerts an influence on mood in many ways, including neurotransmitters, but it also affects about 20 different pathways, and various hormones and enzymes.
Studies generally test saffron for 4–12 weeks, but many people experience a mood lift with only one dose.
Although some may need to take it daily to maintain a cheerful mood, others may find that occasional use is all they need.
In Ayurveda medicine, saffron is often taken with other adaptogens, herbs that have an overall balancing effect by increasing energy or calming stress, as needed. Saffron enhances the effects of adaptogens such as ashwagandha or Rhodiola.
So lucky for you, it's been teamed with both in our new Lifted 👏❤️
